Inspiration from the past: Alexander McQueen Spring 2010 RTW

I've been seeing a lot of mirrored print dresses, tops and bottoms lately. If anything, this year's mirrored Spring-Summer floral prints remind me of one thing: McQueen in 2010.

When I first saw that show, I was blown away by the unique prints on the dresses (then the shoes). Long before Mary Katrantzou even debuted her collection with Topshop, with her signature prints and dresses, Alexander McQueen had done it back in 2010. Alexander had this artistic quality about him and his designs that makes him so wonderful to watch. The darkness incorporated into his works never fails to intrigue and surprise. This was his last collection before he passed away in February 2010. He will definitely be missed.

Below are pictures from the Alexander McQueen Sping 2010 show. Enjoy.

I want those dresses! And the heels with the metal heel scream steampunk style, they're very cool-looking heels. I think I'm going to re-watch the runway show on Youtube now. Ha ha.
